I don't like to listen to that group; they sound like nothing but loud noise. I just read that soft drinks are really bad for you. They have 17 teaspoon of sugar in a single can. If people who drink a lot of soda cut out 2 cans a day, they can lose 25 lbs in a year. The combination of the sugar and the acid is also bad because it takes the enamel right off, ruining the teeth. Candy bars are like soft drinks. They have lots of sugar and no nutrition. People who eat a couple of candy bars and a couple of cans of soda each day get more calories than they need without getting any nutrition. Sit up straight and keep your eyes forward! I want to go to Egypt, see the pyramids, and swim in the Nile. My great grandfather, Henry, won an Olympic gold medal in 1928. I haven't liked any of the movies that have come out recently, perhaps except for Batman Begins.
As a writer, I like to start my books off with a brief intro of the main character (for example
"Hi my name is _______ I am ___ years old and _______. My life was normal until blank."
Not exactly that way, but i just like giving the readers a chance to get to known the main character before the actual story begins.
Hope this helps :)
